    I traded in my 2012 FJ Cruiser Trail Teams on my new 2016 Tacoma TRD OFF-ROAD. One of my favorite mods on the FJ was the Springtail Solutions "Vent Rack". Those little bags come in handy. Mine would hold my knife, gift cards, headphones, extra cash ext.... My wife's bag helped her not leave chapstick or ear rings from sitting in the door rattling. I knew I wanted to add them in the Tacoma.

    So far I have only added one. Its under the center console lid. It is the perfect size. The lid still closes perfect and the pen holder is not obstructed.

    First take out these six screws.

    Then these two for the latch.

    You will have removed these eight screws.

    With a plastic or duck taped flat object, pry until you can pull straight out.

    Hardware for the rack.

    Put it together in reverse order.

    when you had it apart did you notice if there is access to remove the lid from the consul? looking at the pic can't tell. i have an idea for a mod to let the lid open farther back but need to remove it.

    Yes you can access the hinge and from there get the lid off.
